extension This section OF road from
Maquam to Rouses Point was built a few
years ago at an expense of $500, 900 by the
st. Johnsbury aud Lake Champlain road.
5ouds to about that amount were issued,
Vanderbilt, Phelps and others being the
purchasers. When completed the road
was leased to the Ogdeusburg and Lake
Cham plain lor % years conditional upon
its being operated by them. Before any
business was done over the road the Cen
tral secured the Ogdensburg and Lake
TO be excused from operating the same,
or paying rent as they had parallel line.
This request was granted and the Wander
bilt interests are left out in the cold
Since then some of the iron has been
taken up and the road bed to-
day is covered with grass.
The Vanderbilt interests petitioned to
have the request of the Ogdensburgh and
Lake ChampHin dismissed, and their pc
titlon has just been granted by the New
York Court of Appeals, absolutely and
forever. What the next move will be is
unknown, but many believe the iron taken
up on the extension will be relaid and the
road operated. 1t so the City of Maquam
may yet have boom. Anyway the visit
of the Boston and Maine officials and the
Central management just at this time has
given grounds for considerable specula-
ton.
